Dear Friends, What an unforgettable night! YPC’s?2025 Gala Concert and Benefit Dinner?was a spectacular celebration of music, community, and the boundless potential of young voices. From the first note to the powerful finale, our choristers filled the stage with artistry, passion, and joy. The Gala Concert took us on a musical journey, beginning with traditional American folk songs and soaring into contemporary works inspired by the cosmos.
